About OMG2013
The 6th Annual OMG! Cancer Summit is the premiere annual oncology conference and social networking event for the young adult cancer movement. The signature program of Stupid Cancer, this pivotal healthcare event converges several key industry sectors and mobilizes thousands of patients, survivors, caregivers and providers around the world to get organized, build community and unite to drive change.
Why It Matters
Young adults, a largely unknown group in the war on cancer, account for 72,000 new diagnoses each year. That’s one every eight minutes. Young adults (including long-term survivors of childhood cancer) are an underserved age group by way of their sheer isolation and lack of connection to age-appropriate programs, peers and support resources that restore their dignity and connect them to relevant tools to get busy living. No one should ever have to go through cancer alone or unaware of their support options. OMG! makes this possible.
